Magic Johnson: ‘ObamaCare is working’
The Hill ^ | 3/25/13 | Jonathan Easley

Posted on 03/25/2013 12:10:28 PM PDT by Nachum

Hall of Fame basketball player Earvin “Magic” Johnson spoke out on behalf of President Obama’s healthcare law on Monday. “ObamaCare is working. I talk to a lot of CEOs of hospitals. It is working,” he said on MSNBC. Johnson was speaking on "NOW with Alex Wagner" about the NCAA basketball tournament, but he veered into politics at the end of the segment, lauding conservative Florida Gov. Rick Scott’s (R) decision to accept the expansion of Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act. II’m glad that Gov. Scott down in Florida accepted ObamaCare because it will work,” he said.

“Oh brother. What an idiot. It doesn’t even start until 2014.”

I was thinking the same thing. It doesn’t kick in until next year. Can Johnson be that clueless? Then again, he’s a democrat, so I guess the answer is yes.

From what I’ve read ( Don’t ask me to cite it, I’m not in a googling mood today) that most commonly, men pass HIV to men, men to women and rarely woman to man. Who passed it to you Magic?

That being said, I always admired his ability on court. He just needs to keep his pie hole shut on matters he obviously knows nothing about, sitting up there on his golden perch.

A millionaire with magic blood that somehow has rendered him immune to the virus in his body, just who I need telling me that Obamacare is good, like he has any personal stake in it. Parroting what scumbag Hospital executives are telling him. Stick to the basketball analysis and AIDS prevention Magic, don’t be an ass like Charles Barkley former RINO turned frothing obama worshiping moonbat extraordinaire.

Do you know how hard it is to get HIV from sex with a woman? He must have really gotten around.

Nice guy and a great Spartan, but clueless on politics.

Magic should just stick to what he can - oops - could do: play basketball. He needs to shut his liberal mouth - or put his mega-bucks where his mouth is...
